Overview

This 30-credit certificate provides foundational information technology training, offered full-time or part-time at the Montreal and Laval campuses with fall, winter, and summer admission, and is administered by the Faculty of Sciences.

Three elective courses (9 credits) are chosen from options including databases, data structures, software engineering, and operating systems, with at least two required to be INF-coded courses, letting students weight the credential toward web development or systems-oriented electives.
